Perilous voyage and a Blooms of Blanche Bertrand
In a frontier tale set on the Great Kanawha and Ohio, Blanche Bertrand, daughter of Colonel Philip Bertrand, is escorted by Eugene Fairfax and a small party. A panther attack on deck leaves Blanche unscathed, while Fairfax is wounded. A fogbound river crossing leads to a perilous grounding and crew efforts to safeguard the boat as danger looms from savage war parties nearby.
